Daisy Centre Mandala Pattern
I am not really a Mandala "person", but I have been seeing a lot of them lately - such bursts of inspirational colour!
The other afternoon I was not in the mood for any of my WIP's - I desperately needed a bit of colourplay!
This is the result of an afternoon and evening well spent:
DAISY CENTRE MANDALA:
Pattern terms: US
Hook: 5.00mm
Yarn: Elle Pullskein DK
Each row is worked in a different colour
Note: these Mandalas are components of a bigger project I am working on - I needed them to be "stretchy" and therefore used a larger hook; A 4.00mm to 4.50mm depending on your tension will probably be a better option for this type of yarn
Foundation: 4ch, ss to form ring
Row 1: 4 ch (counts as 1dc 1ch), 1dc 1ch into ring (repeat 11 times) (12 x 1dc, 1ch groups) ss to close, break off yarn
Row 2: Into any 1ch sp, 2ch 2dc cluster, 3ch; *3dc cluster, 3ch* crochet *to* 11x (12 clusters), ss to close, break off yarn
Note: a 3dc cluster is formed as follows - yarn over hook, work the first part of the stitch leaving 2 loops on your hook, repeat this twice more (four loops on hook) Yarn over hook and draw through the loops on the hook to form your cluster
Row 3 Into any 3ch sp, 3ch 2dc 1ch; *3dc, 1ch into next 3ch sp* repeat *to* to end, ss to close, break off yarn
Row 4: Into any 1ch sp, 3ch, 1dc, 1ch, 2dc, 1ch: *2dc, 1ch, 2dc, 1ch into next 1ch sp* repeat *to* to end, ss to close, break off yarn
Row 5: Into any 1ch sp, 3ch 2dc; *3dc into next 1ch sp* repeat *to* to end, ss to close, break off yarn

Row 8: Into any dc, 3ch; 1dc into each dc to end, ss to close, break off yarn
Row 9: Into any dc directly in line with dc on row 6: 7ch, 1sc into top of 5th dc from hook; *6ch, 1sc into top of 5th dc from hook* repeat *to* to end, ss into 1st of 7ch
Row 10: ss along first three chain of Row 9; sc into 6ch sp; *7ch, sc into 6ch space* repeat *to* to last 6ch sp; 6ch ss into first sc to close, break off yarn
